AT&T and Samsung have officially announced the Galaxy S5 Active. This device looks a bit uglier but that extra ruggedness gotta count for something.Specs wise, the S5 Active phone is pretty much the same as the regular Galaxy S5, boasting a 5.1-inch Super AMOLED screen, 16-megapixel main camera, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 801 quad-core chip, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of expandable storage. Android 4.

Soon-to-be-launched Samsung Galaxy S5 Active for AT&T photo just leaked.This will be a rugged version of the “regular” Galaxy S5, boasting a slightly bigger 5.2-inch screen (vs Galaxy S5′s 5.1-inch display), while the rest of the specs will be very similar.The Active will pack Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 801 chip, 2GB of RAM, 16-megapixel camera and 16GB of internal storage.

The earlier rumored Samsung Galaxy S5 Active has been caught at the FCC.This model will share Galaxy S5′s internals, all with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 801 quad-core chip clocked at 2.5GHz and 5.1-inch full HD screen. In addition, it may also have a similar/same 16-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, BSI sensor and 4K video recording support.Most notable feature though is the phone’s improved IP68 certification that allows it even more time in the water.

Looks like the Korean company has kept its strategy of offering multiple product variants and will indeed launch the Galaxy S5 Active soon.According to EVleaks, AT&T and Sprint will be among the carriers to sell this more-ruggedized smartphone (model number SM-G870x) though unfortunately we’ve no idea when they’ll officially launch it.Galaxy S5 will be available starting from April 11th so chances are the Active model will follow a month afterwards.
